Especially the statements he made to Media1 TV on the sidelines of the allegiance ceremony. “I have the honor of being present on the occasion of the celebration of the accession to the throne. It is everyone’s duty and may God prolong the life of the king,” rejoiced the king of raï music and world icon for more than 40 years. Enough to provoke the anger of many of his compatriots. They have asked the Algerian authorities to take the necessary measures against Cheb Khaled, to ban him from entering his country and to prohibit the broadcasting of his songs on official channels and radios.
